php - get gallery images from advanced custom field Editor -


i have created meta box editor using advanced custom field plugin

this meta box displays text editor able create , add gallery post.

but while retrieving gallery data.

$gallery = get_post_meta($post->id, 'gallery', true);      echo $gallery; 

this displays

[gallery ids="53,54,55,56"] 

generally, gallery data can retrived

$galleries = get_post_gallery_images( get_the_id() );  

but not seem work if using meta box save gallery.

is there wordpress way gallery images , loop through them , display image in lightbox or should try other method?

1st assuming had put "[gallery ids="53,54,55,56"]" short code under meta filed why

$gallery = get_post_meta($post->id, 'gallery', true);
echo $gallery;

return

[gallery ids="53,54,55,56"]

can try

$gallery = get_post_meta($post->id, 'gallery', true);
echo do_shortcode($gallery);

and

$galleries = get_post_gallery_images( get_the_id() );

returns list of array of image items image upload sources.
